I wanted to know how these look when on in your clear corners? Is there a good amount of light or stick to the regular style of bulbs?

I have red ones... they are very nice and bright... and the best part is that the red color is very deep and not faded. Only weird thing is that they trick my system into thinking that the bulbs are almost dead... so all of my blinkers go at twice the speed... I like it that way though.

I have had a set of the red ones for over a year and they work great.

Mine also do the hyper blinker but it was intended that way. It has some form of a relay in it that turns it to fast blinker when it is installed but it only works with the blinker and not with the hazard lights...they stay the same speed.

When I removed the bumper lights from my car and ran the wires up the my corner lights it tricked my system since its missing a set of lights so they hyper blink. I liek it thought, if I have all lights off they just blink, but if I have my parking lights on the flash front to back. (not front bumper to back bumper) the corner lights have 2 bulbs so they alternate back and forth and it looks cool with the 4 ways.

I considered getting LED bulbs for my car, but didn't for many reasons:

But if you do plan on getting the turn signal bulbs, you can use this to get rid of the "hyperblinker":

I have hyperblinkers with high-watt relays so it didn't change my blinking speed.

the intensity is right, the direction is a little too concentrated ahead, but it works decently overall in the blinker housing. i bought white ones and they look purple. i'm disappointed that they're not plain white or white with a very little bluish tint.
